Jobbeschreibung

At Julius Baer, we celebrate and value the individual qualities you bring, enabling you to be impactful, to be entrepreneurial, to be empowered, and to create value beyond wealth. Let’s shape the future of wealth management together.

As part of the Risk Management function within the Chief Risk Officer (CRO) division, this newly created role sits within the second line of defence (Technology Risk Control) and plays a critical part in the successful delivery of Bank Julius Baer’s multi-year ‘Renewal of Operational Core (ROC)’ programme.

You will provide independent, risk-based value and delivery assurance, within CRO, throughout the lifecycle of the ROC programme. This includes identifying, assessing, monitoring, and remediating risks related to programme execution, while ensuring alignment with regulatory expectations and the Bank’s risk appetite.

A key component of the role will be to establish and manage an independent and structured reporting framework in alignment with the project stakeholders (e.g., PMO, IT, and other units within the COO division) ensuring transparent communication of programme risks in focus and assurance outcomes to relevant stakeholders and governance bodies.

This role requires a high degree of flexibility and curiosity, as you will operate across a variety of topics in a fast-evolving project landscape. You'll need to switch quickly between technical details, strategic discussions, and stakeholder alignment. YOUR CHALLENGE
  • Act as the 2nd Line of Defence risk representative for the ROC programme, ensuring project risks are independently assessed and appropriately managed

  • Perform ongoing risk-based reviews across the project lifecycle: including design, development, testing, migration, and go-live (e.g. pre- and post-implementation review)

  • Conduct deep dives and checkpoint reviews, particularly with respect to operational risk focusing on technology, information & cyber security and IT risks

  • Establish and maintain a robust reporting structure to communicate risk and assurance insights to senior stakeholders, including the Steering Committee and other relevant governance bodies.

  • Collaborate with subject matter experts within CRO division (e.g., NFRC, Technology Risk, Compliance, and Credit Risk) to ensure that the delivery approach does not introduce unacceptable operational, regulatory, or compliance risks

  • Support the development and implementation of a formal risk monitoring and assurance framework tailored to the needs of the ROC programme

  • Contribute to the definition of the project’s risk appetite and ensure it is consistently applied

  • Ensure proper documentation, escalation, and communication of risks and their remediation throughout the ROC programme governance structure

  • Liaise closely with the ROC PMO and project teams to monitor emerging risks and ensure mitigation plans are executed

YOUR PROFILE
  • 5+ years of experience in Risk Management, Internal Audit, Project Assurance, or a related function within financial services

  • Demonstrated experience | participation with large-scale transformation programmes

  • Deep understanding of operational, technology, and regulatory risk concepts

  • Strong experience in building and maintaining structured reporting frameworks

  • Excellent stakeholder management skills and the ability to challenge and influence at senior levels

  • High adaptability and intellectual agility — you can easily pivot between strategic, operational, and technical topics

  • Strong analytical and communication skills, with the ability to translate complex risks into actionable insights

  • Familiarity with risk governance frameworks, project management processes, and regulatory expectations

  • Fluent in English; German is a plus
